      I guess I spoiled this denim by throwing it in the washing machine. I purchased it sometime in 2017 and I wore it extensively that year, but after that I kind of did not have the chance to wear it at office. It somehow landed in the washing machine and as it can be seen from the pictures below, it has got those fades in unwanted areas. What could I do about it?

        What a shame….

        Nothing can make the fades lines un-fade I am afraid.  If you wear long enough the unwanted fades will start to merge into the background....

        Looks like the patch has shrunk a little too, I'd oil it and see if it will revert to pre-wash shape/size, if not cut it off...

          I know it was my mistake to have it in the washing machine! Lesson learnt! I'm okay with the patch. It has a used look now!

            I don’t think the lines are very noticeable. Just wear the heck out of them. The advantage is now you don’t have to baby them, and can wash and dry with reckless abandon.

              I’d put a good leather conditioner the patch anyway so it doesn’t get too dry and start cracking.

                Agreed.

                  I will do it! I have some oil that I use on my Red Wing Iron Ranger shoes! Probably will use'em

                      The denim is less fuzzy and starting to fade.

                              I bought a pair of these and am finding it difficult to wear anything else. At this point I have realized that the 666 is the perfect cut for me and having a pair in this fabric is an unbeatable combination. Long live the 666.

                                The 666-21s are my first pair as well, and they have molded to my body like no other denim ever has.

                                They just get better with every wear:)

                                  Not my first pair but definitely my favorite. The vintage 18oz is a close second.

                                    Ive only had mine for 6 weeks now, but I know for sure that I will try another model down the road.
                                    Enjoy the journey.

                                          Nice! I don’t have any indigo 21oz in rotation at the moment. Might have to do something about that…
